Kannazuki no Miko/Headscratchers

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Kannazuki no Miko

  • Why does Chikane start that love-speech addressed at Himeko during their fight, when she wants Himeko to actually kill her? It's way counter-productive.
  • When does this series take place? They keep on being reincarnated, and the reincarnations all seem present time except for the previous one shown in Kannazuki. They must each take at least 14 years after each other.
  • Were Chikane and Himeko reincarnated again at the ending of the anime?
  • Chikane. Himeko. The rape. I'm sorry but what the fuck?
    • Two reasons. One: Chikane wanted Himeko to hate her, so that she wouldn't feel any remorse for killing her. Two: in the manga version, the rape took place in the cave where they were trying to summon Ame no Murakumo. Himeko was a virgin, and when she...bled...it served as a catalyst to summon it. In the anime, due to the changed location and how the summoning of Ame no Murakumo changes function, it's much more just the first reason and wanting to keep the event in the anime too.
